It's incredible that I can buy Microsoft Office in 2019 and then on July 13th of 2026 they can decide actually you're just no longer allowed to use it. Now you need to pay $100 per year. This should be illegal. The product works just fine, even if they no longer support it with updates.

This year the NCAA champion women’s crew would’ve finished 5th in the men’s event, so at least in collegiate rowing, if you are not in one of the top 4 fastest boats in the country there are plenty of women beating you
Micahit's the old serena williams tweet in action, that there is a physical difference between the top tier of male athletes and the top tier of female athletes gets taken by far too many delusional men as "I can beat a woman at anything" no, you cannot beat a decent athlete of either gender at anything
This is 100% correct, and you can’t fake it. As a medieval historian, I see so many people try to outsmart this trap by talking about “trade” or “taxes,” but because they didn’t really learn it they modernize things far too much and in ways that flatten the world and make it less interesting!
David J ProkopetzTo write in the classic high fantasy mould, you need not be hung up on food specifically, but there must be SOME very mundane thing you're sincerely interested in and prepared to describe in excruciating detail every time it comes up. Clothing. Furniture. Architecture. It doesn't work without it.
As someone who coaches youth girls sports for a living, amateur and especially youth sports is one of the most important and sacred things in this world, but no individual sport or performance matters AT ALL. It only matters because of who you become while playing, and who you let play with you.
Marisa Kabasthe obsession with trans women in sports is, apart from the abject bigotry, a symptom of how we take amateur sports participation way too seriously in this country.
I mean idk about 3 albums, but from 2002-2005 the Mountain Goats had a banger FOUR album run of All Hail West Texas, Tallahassee, We Shall All Be Healed, and Sunset Tree
Mia Murphy 🏳️⚧️What's the best three album run from a band? (the correct answer is Moving Pictures, Signals, and Grace Under Pressure by Rush, but I'm excited to learn second place)
In the order I read them. When I buy them they go on the TBR shelf, and then when they graduate from the TBR shelf they go into the first open spot. I can find anything in the entire library but ONLY I can find anything in the entire library
Immigrant PunkEnough of the horrors and doom scrolling. Let's talk about something fun. How do you arrange your books?
This is the real life modern version of Barry Keoghan in Banshees of Inisherin
🌿hello bsky, can someone who is an esteemed expert of hetero culture please explain to me — what in the f’ck did i just watch??
“There is a good side to this terrible movie: I am making BANK” Incredible. This review is a banger from start to finish. I haven’t seen the movie yet so maybe I’ll disagree with her conclusions, but either way this review is SAVAGE and fucking ROCKS.
London Review of Books‘Nolan has read at least the first line of my translation of 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘖𝘥𝘺𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘺 into iambic pentameter. In one interview, he cited my version of it: “Tell me about a complicated man.” But I would be ashamed to have written any part of this script.’ New, by Emily Wilson www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Kingdom of Heaven has perhaps one of the biggest deltas between the quality of the theatrical release and the quality of the directors cut. Theatrical release: rushed, incoherent, islamophobic. Directors cut: Ridley Scott’s magnum opus

They couldn’t Horst Wessel Charlie Kirk so they’re trying to do it to *checks notes* Lindsey Graham??

It kills me though when people are like “x city is easy to navigate, it’s on a grid!” Okay but all streets on a grid look the same, so I couldn’t tell you off the top of my head if something was on 30th street or 32nd street! But if the roads wind I can tell you EXACTLY where something is
mtswMost of the United States is actually fairly easy to navigate without a map
